Title: Hello from Warren!
Post by: LabDaddy on May 26, 2017, 09:25:34 AM
 Hello!
Jeff here.  Nice to meet you all,  looking forward to attending your meetings and the big ACA event this summer.
I just got back into the hobby thanks to my wife getting me a 65g for Christmas this past year.  The tank is stocked with mostly mbuna, see my signature for specifics. I mostly kept community fish before so I'm new to keeping cichlids but I'm constantly reading forums and watching Youtube to increase my knowledge.  I'll post some pics of our tank and a few of our boys in the pic section when I get a chance.  Thanks again for the add!

Welcome!  Looking forward to seeing your tank setup.   I first started with mbuna,  also & will always have a love for them,  even though I've moved on to the Central American species

Nice! I'm looking into doing an Amazonian tank next, for my daughters' room! 8)

I wanna do a big Geophagus biotope one day,  but it's gotta be a minimum of 180gal, lol

Sweet! I'd love to do a tank that big someday. The one going in the girls' room is only a 20 Long. After that we'll do another bigger one, probably a Tanganyikan tank.  I'd love to do a big school of Cyprichromus with some shellies and other species that would co-habitate with those.
